BredaPhoto Festival 2026 Open Call

BredaPhoto exhibits visual stories that inspire, move, confront, raise new questions, and demonstrate that photography is the artistic medium at the heart of society. The BredaPhoto Festival is a biennial where you get the chance to view the work of national and international photographers and visual artists at unique indoor and outdoor locations in Breda, The Netherlands. 

The call for entries for the edition of 2026 is open to professional photographers and visual artists, either graduated from art school or a similar education or self-taught artists with at least 3 years of experience. No age limits or regional restrictions. Every artist can submit one project. There are more spots available for projects that can be presented outside than projects that need an indoor location, but both photography as well as audiovisual installations can be submitted.

The BredaPhoto team of both Dutch and international curators that is working on the whole programme for 2026 will also select the artists from the Open Call.
